Apple updated its Apple Pay participating issuers list today with 46 additional banks, credit unions and financial institutions supporting the contactless payment service in the United States. Apple Pay now has over 500 participating issuers nationwide, and several more plan to support the NFC-based mobile payment service in the future.

As is Chase Mastercard/Business Cards. For such a large bank it's annoying to not be able to use your business card (or Mastercard) but they allow Visa.
 
Issuers are great, but we need to get more retailers on board with accepting it.

I seek out and patronize businesses who support it.

ETRADE BANK

WHOO HOO!!!!

(adding card now to my phone and watch!)

I appreciate E*Trade Bank's honesty when I complained to them. They said that they'd have it be 4Q15, and I told them that I wouldn't be there on 10/1 demanding it (I'd wait until 1/1/16), but they came through ahead of time!

It's not on this list, but Umpqua added ApplePay at the beginning of this month, too(maybe I missed it in the last one? Though Sterling is on this one, and I'd assume they were at the same time). That's it for cards I carry!

Was also happy that my main (local co-op) supermarket now has NFC enabled on their PoS terminals, although they're using a custom interface and there's no decal, so there is no indication that it exists apart from your phone recognizing it. Only places I go regularly now that don't support ApplePay are Safeway and the gas station.
 
Looks like it's updated in the UK too - M&S Bank is now supported (was previously "Coming Soon").

My local Vons says "swipe or insert card" yet the latter doesn't work. Also, for the longest time it was saying that even with the old card slot-less terminals. So strange.

CubanMissiles was noting that the transactions on his AMEX would show up as something like "APPLPAY **" or something like this, so doing expense reports might not be easy to do with Apple Pay. It would be one of those "hunt down the transaction amount and figure out where you spent it" things, or the "keep all of the paper receipts" things.

Concur makes it easier, but I've been caught in the "hey, I need that receipt for those breath mints that you bought with your card in Tokyo, or we can't process your $6000 expense report, and it'll come out of your salary." loop.

I think they're trying to get rid of MC, or at least make it a lot less prominent. Their debit and almost all of their personal/small business cards seem to be Visa now. I'm surprised they don't just mail replacement Visa cards to their remaining MC customers and finish off the transition.

I was expecting a word on that in last week's keynote :(

I know there were rumors about Apple not holding an October event so maybe at the end of October if they update some of the Macs with new processors in a press release they will do this as well? Something thats not big enough to hold an event, but to announce some updates and stuff like that.
 
Some have speculated Apple Pay for Canada will be announced at the Code/Mobile conference in early October as the head of Apple Pay will speak at the conference.
Fingers crossed.

How much longer will you be using those for?

I definitely will not be investing money in a new gasoline based car. If the one I have now (a 2004 Buick at 180K miles) gives up on me, I'll be finding another junker to hold me over until affordable* electric cars hit the market in ~2 years.

* And good. The BMW i3 is affordable at $36K (after tax breaks), but the range is only 81 miles. Pass. The Chevy Volt is not an electric car no matter how hard Chevy tries to say it is. It has a 9 gallon gas tank attached to it - that is definitely a gasoline based car. It only goes 38 miles without the battery. Pathetic. The 3 Tesla cars (Model S, Model X, and Roadster) are the only good electric cars on the market, but none of them are affordable.
